Janet Diane (Marsh) Morrison was born on December 21, 1949 to Delferd and Paulette Marsh. At the time of her birth the family home was in Des Arc, Arkansas, where she received education through the public schools. She became simply known as Jan and shared in childhood memories along with one sister, Carolyn DeGunion of Des Arc.  Jan and Carolyn would quickly become best friends and remain close throughout life.

Blessed to become a wife, homemaker and mother, Jan took great pride in caring for her home and family. She became the mother of two sons, Jimmy (Sonia) Green of Searcy and Tim Green (Lori) Green of Des Arc, six grandchildren and one great grandchild. Outside the home Jan worked as a CNA, helping to care for those in need at Des Arc Nursing Home.

When involved in an auto accident, Jan met Michael Morrison. In 1989, they married and enjoyed thirty-one years of marriage, before Michael passed away in November of 2020.

Jan was known by many in the community as a sweet and kind person. She loved everybody and always enjoyed visiting and special family times were shared during the Christmas holidays in anticipation of Jan's homemade candies. Jan also enjoyed spending time sewing, crocheting, collecting books and time with her beloved canine companion, Princess.

Jan was of the Christian faith and attended worship at the Harvest Praise Church in Cabot. She always enjoyed times of fellowship with her church family, sharing her love of gospel music. On September 19, 2022, Jan passed away at the age of 72.
